Important Guidelines for Applicants
The National Housing Trust (NHT) will commence accepting applications for refund of contributions made in 2016 on January 1, 2024. Qualified contributors are being reminded that they may apply for refunds at any time during the year for contributions made in 2016 or earlier.
The National Housing Trust (NHT) takes note of recent news articles on the status of an agreement under its Guaranteed Purchase Programme (GPP).
Prime Minister, the Most Honourable Andrew Holness on Friday, August 11, 2023, led a ground breaking exercise for Sheffield Palms, the National Housing Trust's, NHT, newest housing development in Retreat, Westmoreland. The 113-unit housing project is being developed in collaboration with Sheffield Palms Developers Limited under the NHT's Guaranteed Purchase Programme (GPP). Upon completion, 60 of the units will be available to the NHT for its contributors.
Forty-seven-year-old, Tricia Hylton can remember vividly the moment she broke down in tears, after her last application for a Serviced Lot at NHT's Steelfield Housing Scheme was not successful. She was discouraged and lost hope in the process, vowing to never apply for another NHT scheme unit or lot again.
'But my Aunt Stephanie said something to me. She said, 'don't worry yourself, it is not your time yet. Something will come,' she reminisced. Those words were poignant and gave Tricia a renewed hope and confidence that her time would come, and it would be great.
The National Housing Trust (NHT) has increased the number of partner mortgage institutions through which qualified contributors can access their NHT mortgage benefits.
